They discounted the free option years ago. Customer service can be a pain to deal with and their cancelation policy is ridiculous.

I like how easy it is to configure and manage, as well as how well it works. I have had extremely good luck with it, and i have used it since it was in beta form. I have looked at other offerings, but keep sticking with Sophos, which must mean something.

Not so user friendly when trying to track down threats on local machines on the network.
